How did you do the wing folds?
I have wanted to do this with an A-10, mark it for USMC service.

I just used an X-Acto knife to carefully seperate them between control surfaces, then added bits and pieces from my leftovers bin to make the wing interiors. I used the A-6 folding mechanisms as a rough guide

Wing folds look fine and are attention getter. Whole A-10N appears zactly right as USN.

Way cool!
The IFR probe is a neat addition.

That is a very cool conversion. I like the wing fold, looks right.
